I was just watching this and thinking. Betty’s dress is truly ugly. It’s cut wrong and it doesn’t fit. I know the wardrobe department on this show must have been on a budget, but wow. We are all very fortunate they hadn’t invented polyester yet.

Thanks for clarifying… My first time seeing this, but I was a fan of the comic books. Great effects, considering when this was made. Amazing that already, we can nearly recreate the REAL ability now… :=)
